Episode Summary Part 2 of this episode explores the Energy Access sector through interviews with experts to get a sense of existing challenges today. Key terms such as "Social Value" and "Productive Use" of energy are defined by these experts, along with their personal metrics for measuring success in providing energy access.  --- Preface Approximately 1 billion people in the world today live without access to the energy required for basic life functions such as cooking and seeing at night. The Affordable Energy 4 Humanity (AE4H) Innovation Lab 2019 dedicated three days to bring some of the world's top energy experts together to establish global networks and start collaborations for today's increasingly complex energy access challenges.  EWB UW had the privilege of attending and interviewing some of these experts in search of insights on what it means to work in Energy Access today. Join us on a 3-part episode to learn about how Energy Access relates to development work, how you can get involved through co-op opportunities and fellowships, and the perspectives experts have on their work. --- Notable links: Listen to all the expert interviews in full here: https://ae4h.org/projects/innovation_lab_current/innovation_lab_2019#Podcast Co-op opportunities in the Energy Access sector through WISE and the Queen Elizabeth Scholars program: https://ae4h.org/projects/qes Do you like these kinds of episodes?
